Formscan By Donal Murphy - This is a very weak contest and despite running below par on her last start, SERRA NOVA is given another chance. The daughter of Dushyantor won a race at Cork over the distance in August and then she ran a respectable race again at Cork to finish fourth behind The Boat People. She disappointed last time out at Punchestown but is given another chance in this weak contest. Let Me Fly is an interesting runner for trainer Amanda Mooney. The 5yo son of Alderbrook is out of a half-sister to fourteen time winner Emotional Moment. He has shown nothing of note so far in maiden hurdles but making his debut in handicap company here a better showing can be expected. Three time winner Bobsthewizard makes her come back from nearly two years off the track and if the Fran Flood trained mare has retained her ability she could go close. Short Grass and Rating Queen both ran well last time out and are sure to give good accounts of themselves.

It's pretty darn depressing when political writers are essentially writing off the 2016 election as a choice between the lesser of two evils -- seven months in advance of the election.

What Trump will change -- and what he won't

Puerto Rican bonds and the small investor
The TV ads flash the noble faces of American retirees and urge Washington to help protect their savings. The back story is kept rather vague. It's that many older people invested in Puerto Rican bonds. The U.S. territory's economy is in deep crisis, and it has begun defaulting on this debt.

I might be wrong on this one, but usually, in a network of brokers, the messages are synced between brokers. When one of the brokers goes down, the messages are not lost.

Director Joe Wright's next act involves a trip to Neverland.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Anna Karenina and Hanna filmmaker is in talks to direct a new take on Peter Pan for Warner Bros., with Arrow's Greg Berlanti producing and Jason Fuchs set to write the script. Little else is known beyond the Peter Pan premise, and the promise that this version of the tale will give Pan "the Batman Begins treatment."
Wright's take on Neverland is just the latest of many Peter Pan projects in development. Channing Tatum's Pan is developing at Columbia Pictures, while Hunger Games director Gary Ross has been attached to adapt Peter and the Starcatchers for Disney for some time now.
nooooo. Joe Wright is a better director than this — to do another re-hash of Neverland shit… We've had so many goddamn Peter Pan films in the last 20 years, do we really need another one just so we can see it in a dark and gritty light? He can do better.

If the probability of two events are equal, can we conclude that the events are equal? In other words how does one show that the event of getting at most 3 x's is the same as the sum of the events of getting exactly 3 x's and at most 2 x's.
NO, same probability is not used to define "equality" of events. Instead, just say "equal probability", or be fancy and say "equiprobable".

My stay for both business and leisure exceeded all expectations at this jewel of an Inn. From the moment I arrived I felt so pampered. My room was an oasis filled with wonderful amenities, even a morning paper arrives. I was able to have a very enjoyable breakfast meeting that featured Italian-style Eggs Benedict one morning and the best huevos rancheros the next all complimented by amazing pastries and my favorite a big bowl of fruit, a variety of juices and delicious coffee. In the evening there is wine and hors d'oevres followed by a surprise dessert and coffee. I really enjoyed my in room coffee service while preparing for my day and taking along one of the bottled waters offered was really helpful. Easy parking and walking to some of the valley's finest restaurants and local shopping are an added plus. But making this stay so enjoyable is the remarkable staff. They are so friendly and helpful. I truly did not want for a thing. But had I, I know this super staff would have been right on top it. I did not want to leave but I am already looking forward to my next stay to include some jacuzzi time and a massage.

To gain hands-on experience, you can intern with a business or non-profit agency in their major field of study or volunteer for such community service as building houses for Habitat for Humanity or helping Special Olympics competitors. On campus, you can find many peer education opportunities for students to assist other students. You may also help fellow learners by tutoring through the Office of Learning Services.
Research Opportunities
With undergraduate research opportunities in all departments, many students engage in their own research or work with a faculty member. Students share the results of their research annually at Quest, Oswego's forum for scholarly and creative activity.
The Collegiate Science and Technology Entry Program (CSTEP) provides support and encouragement to students pursuing programs that lead to a professional license and/or careers in scientific, technical, business, educational and health-related fields.
Rice Creek Field Station provides support of academic instruction, research and public service in all aspects of natural history, especially the natural sciences and environmental education.
Living and Learning
SUNY Oswego provides additional opportunities beginning in the freshman year through our First-Year Programs. FirstChoice is a selection of small classes where first-year students really get to know their professors, make new friends and learn about everything that Oswego has to offer.
Oswego's residential opportunities include living and learning centers incorporating academic life. The First-Year Residential Experience in Johnson Hall builds a caring community where students can become involved in the academic and social life of the campus. The Hart Hall Global Living and Learning Center provides an environment based on international understanding and community service.
Studying abroad allows students to learn the language and culture of another country, with SUNY Oswego offering a wide variety of programs across several continents.
Honors Program courses draw ideas and information from many fields, addressing concerns common to all disciplines to show no boundaries exist to thought and inquiry. These small, lively classes examine the historical and intellectual origins, and growth and development, of today's issues, with a focus on the connections among them and their consequences for tomorrow.
Cultural Opportunities
There are many opportunities for SUNY Oswego students to both express their creativity and experience high-quality entertainment. Artswego, a special performance and arts program, draws high-caliber arts events for the campus and community, often with residencies where performers share their knowledge and tips for those interested in the business.

Florida has a number of excellent up and coming players, an area of promise but also an area of potential disappointment. These include the just drafted Barkov, said to be ready to step into an NHL lineup right away and likely to center at some point the the Calder rookie winner Huberdeau, who has the skill to be a star player for years to come. Headlining the promising young defensemen are Kulikov and Gudbranson, both developing into solid top four or even top two defensemen and both still young, especially for defensemen. Markstrom has been widely touted as a top goalie prospect for a few years and is likely to be given a legitimate shot at starting from the get go this season. Other promising young players are Shore, Bjugstad, Howden, Matthias, Matheson, and Petrovic.
In 2011 Dale Tallon stepped in as GM and made a number of moves and signings that brought in a number of overpaid players, partly to get above the cap floor. Tallon brought in and then resigned Versteeg, as well as trading for Campbell, whose contract has been criticized widely as being too much for his value. Other signings included Jovanovski, Upshall, Kopecky, and Bergenheim, and each of the aforementioned players have arguably or certainly failed to play up to their contracts. This may be due to injury, but regardless, these contracts will cripple the team's ability to spend especially through the 14-15 season and also through the 15-16 season.
